MUNDY, W. R.  y  PRETORIUS, L.. The Design and Analysis of a Runaway Escapement. R&D j. (Matieland, Online) [online]. 1993, vol.9, pp.15-21. ISSN 2309-8988.

Runaway escapements of various types are utilised as timing regulators or inertial governors in clockwork mechanisms. The design process for a spring driven runaway escapement having a flat sided pallet has been developed and a computer model to simulate its operation established. Simulation runs were in excellent agreement with experimental results.
